Ingredients

For the Cornbread:

  • 2 cups yellow cornmeal

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 cup granulated sugar

  • 2 tablespoons baking powder

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 2 cups milk

  • ⅔ cup vegetable oil

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 (15-ounce) can of cream-style corn

For the Honey Butter:

  • ½ cup unsalted butter (melted)

  • ¼ cup honey

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dry Ingredients:

    • In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure everything is evenly distributed.

  2. Mix the Wet Ingredients:

    • In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and the can of cream-style corn (this is the secret to super moist cornbread!).

  3. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:

    • Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and gradually pour in the wet mixture. Stir gently until fully combined, but be careful not to overmix.

  4. Prepare the Baking Dish:

    • Grease a 13x9-inch baking dish with butter. Pour the cornbread batter evenly into the dish.

  5. Bake the Cornbread:

    • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake the cornbread for 20–25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  6. Make the Honey Butter:

    • While the cornbread is baking, mix the melted butter and honey in a small bowl.

  7. Glaze the Cornbread:

    • About halfway through baking, brush the top of the cornbread with the honey butter for an extra layer of sweetness and shine. Reserve some for serving.

  8. Serve:

    • Let the cornbread cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm with the remaining honey butter for drizzling.
